- generation of SHA encrypted passwords (chpasswd, gpasswd, newusers,
chgpasswd; and also passwd if configured without PAM support).
The number of rounds and number of salt bytes was fixed to their lower
allowed values (resp. configurable and 8), hence voiding some of the
advantages of this encryption method. Dictionary attacks with
precomputed tables were easier than expected, but still harder than with
the MD5 (or DES) methods.
* NEWS, libmisc/salt.c (SHA_salt_size): Seed the RNG, and fix a
overflow. These caused the SHA salt size to always be 8 bytes,
instead of being in the 8-16 range. Thanks to Peter Vrabec
pvrabec@redhat.com for noticing.
* NEWS, libmisc/salt.c (SHA_salt_rounds): Seed the RNG with
seedRNG instead of srand, and fix the same overflow. This caused
the number of rounds to always be the smallest one.
* libmisc/pam_pass.c: Be more verbose and indicate that the
password was not changed when pam_chauthtok fails (in addition to
the PAM error, which may not be comprehensible for the users).
SIGSTOP handling. Raise the signal which stopped the child instead
of always SIGSTOP.
Import Debian patch 406_vipw_resume_properly.
Thanks to Dean Gaudet.
* NEWS, src/vipw.c: Resume properly after ^Z.
Files with no license use the default 3-clauses BSD license. The copyright
were mostly not recorded; they were updated according to the Changelog.
"Julianne Frances Haugh and contributors" changed to "copyright holders

endpwend() sequences (ditto for getgrent(), getspent(), and
getsgent()). The only real (minor) issue was in login, which kept
the passwd file open.
* libmisc/entry.c: Remove unneeded setspent() and endspent() (only
getspnam is called in the middle).
* libmisc/find_new_ids.c: Make sure to close the password and
group files with endpwent() and endgrent().
* libmisc/pwdcheck.c: Remove unneeded endspent() (only getspnam()
is called before).
* src/lastlog.c, src/passwd.c, src/groupmod.c, src/faillog.c,
src/groups.c: Make sure to close
the password file with endpwent().
* src/login.c: Remove unneeded setpwent() (only xgetpwnam is
called before).
* src/login.c, src/newgrp.c: Fix typos in comments.

header file) could not be found. If nothing is specified, enable
the feature only if we can find the library (or header file).
$(pamd_files). Remove the duplicate useradd. And sort
alphabetically. Thanks to Mark Rosenstand <mark@borkware.net>.

also the GID of the passwd entries of the users whose primary
group is the group being modified.

* NEWS: This fix the behavior of groupdel when the system is not
configured to support split group but different group entries
have the name of the group to be deleted.
unlocked on exit. Add function fail_exit(). Use fail_exit()
instead of exit().
* src/groupdel.c: Fail immediately instead of increasing errors.
Better handling of error cases, like locked group or gshadow file.
to Christian Henz (http://bugs.debian.org/467488)
* src/gpasswd.c (get_group): Do not fail if gshadow is not present. Just use
the group file and set the grent structure
* src/gpasswd.c (check_perms): The permissions should be checked
using both the gshadow and group file. Add a <struct group *>
parameter, and check if the gshadow file exists (is_shadowgrp).
* src/gpasswd.c (main): Do not use sgent.sg_mem or sgent.sg_adm if
the gshadow file is not present (sgent is not initialized in that
case). The fields of sgent can be set, but not used.
Document new variables.
* man/newusers.8.xml, man/login.defs.5.xml,
man/login.defs.d/GID_MAX.xml, man/login.defs.d/UID_MAX.xml:
newusers uses now the GID_MAX, GID_MIN, UID_MAX, UID_MIN,
SYS_GID_MAX, SYS_GID_MIN, SYS_UID_MAX, and SYS_UID_MIN variables.
* man/groupadd.8.xml, man/login.defs.5.xml: groupadd uses now the
SYS_GID_MAX, and SYS_GID_MIN variables.
* man/login.defs.5.xml: useradd uses now the SYS_GID_MAX,
SYS_GID_MIN, SYS_UID_MAX, and SYS_UID_MIN variables.
* src/newusers.c: The user's ID must be found before the group ID
to mimic useradd's behavior choices of UID and GID.
* src/newusers.c: Reuse the generic find_new_uid() and
find_new_gid() functions. This permits to respect the
UID_MIN/UID_MAX and GID_MIN/GID_MAX variables, should
* src/newusers.c: Check if the user or group exist using the
external databases (with the libc getpwnam/getgrnam functions).
Refuse to update an user which exist in an external database but
does not exist in the local database.
* src/newusers.c: Check the usernames and groupnames with
check_user_name() and check_group_name()
* src/newusers.c: Use isdigit() for readability.
* src/newusers.c: Check if numerical IDs are valid (no remaining
chars).
* NEWS, src/newusers.c: Fix the support for the NONE crypt method.
* src/newusers.c: Fix shadow group support (the list of admins was
not defined; it is now set to an empty list).
microseconds to avoid having the same salt for different passwords
generated in the same second. This permits to avoid using the same salt
for different passwords in newusers.
find_new_uid() and find_new_gid(). They work the same way as the functions
with the same name of useradd or groupadd, except that they check in the
local database to make sure an ID was not reserved in an uncommitted
change (this is needed to be used in newusers), they report a status
instead of calling exit(), and they can receive a preferred ID. They
should later support system IDs. This should be a little bit slower, but
not too much (if the database is not open the checks against the local
database will exit immediately, and if it is already open, all the checks
will be done regarding the data in memory).
src/chfn.c, src/passwd.c, src/chage.c, src/login.c, src/sulogin.c,
src/chsh.c: Fix call to puts (remove end of line, or use fputs).
* po/*.po: Unfuzzy PO files according to above change.
Daubert for the patch.
* libmisc/salt.c: Include <stdio.h>, needed for stderr and printf
functions.
* lib/encrypt.c: Include <stdio.h>, needed for perror, stderr and
printf functions
* src/usermod.c: sgr_locked exists only if SHADOWGRP is defined.
* src/chgpasswd.c: Only check is the gshadow file exists if
SHADOWGRP is defined.
differ from the old ones. If a requested new value is equal to the old
one, no changes will be performed for that field. If no fields are
changed, usermod will exist successfully with a warning. This avoids
logging changes to syslog when there are actually no changes.

field, and user_new<x> as the new field (even if the field did not change)
instead of changing the algorithm depending on WITH_AUDIT.
unknown GID (either the user was deleted during the user's newgrp
session or the user's passwd entry referenced an invalid group).
Add a syslog warning in that case.
* src/newgrp.c: Add an end of line when reporting an invalid
password.

changes, except for the following bug fix: no syslog logging if a passwd
or group file was specified on the command line without a shadowed
database file, even if the system shadowed database was changed).
* src/lastlog.c: Fix types, cast umin and umax to uid_t.
* src/lastlog.c: (option -u) user needs to be a signed long, not
uid_t (to accept rangees like -<uid>
gid parameters can be set to -1 to indicate that the original
owners must be kept. Change the types from uid_t/gid_t to a
long int (signed).

to a fail_exit, which makes sure the files are unlocked (new global
variables: pw_locked, spw_locked), the PAM transaction is ended, and
the failure is logged to libaudit (use a global user_name and user_uid
for logging).

the shadow file.
* NEWS, src/chage.c (open_files): Also open the password file for
writing. This fix chage when the user only has a password entry (and
no shadow entries).
* src/chage.c (get_defaults): Use default values that don't change the
behavior of the account for the fields that are not specified when the
user has no shadow entry.
